When I went from 315 to 318 all I did was download the update.pkg ( in androids stock browser)from dell and android installed it and all my data stayed intact. Now my question is will that method work if I want to go to 345?

what is the benefit of going to 345 from 318?

Sorry to be such a noob! but what is the benefit of of going to 345 from 318?
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marvin02:
If you use the stage ui it has updates in 345 which most people say make it better. I don't use stage.

The android version is 2.2.2 so you will benefit from any bugfixes to android.

It actually runs very smooth and stable. The quadrant scores aren't as good as a custom rom or 318 with the performance fix, but in real world use it works very well IMO.

The biggest drawback, to me, is that nandroid backups using streak droid or clockwork mod do not work.

If you are on a ROM that nandroid backups work It is easy to revert if you don't like 345 using your backup.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] satkitten:
fully agree with marvino2's comments....only i went from 319 to 345....not had a single problem...its really slick....and like marvin....i dont use the new Stage UI but only because of the landscape overlap...otherwise i would. easy to root but had to install busybox from the market..

and as stated (just like in my 319) no fix for nandroid backup yet...but not a big issue as titanium did all the hard work for me!
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shinydesert:
Did you guys receive the market update after installing 345?
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marvin02:
Yeah - I went back and forth between 345 and Streakdroid 1.9.1 a couple of times, so I have installed 345 a total of three times.

The first and last time I got the market update right away - used the market once and when I went back the second time it was updated.

The second install it took a while for the market to update itself.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shinydesert:
Thanks so much for your reply,I ended up installing the update myself.I will digging into this new rom.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eowyn:
I can confirm that I am able to do nandroid backup for 345. Before I can't, nandroid kept sticking on backing up firstboot, what I did was reformatted my sdcard, made a nandroid backup of 1.9.0 first, reinstalled 345 2.2.2, set up google acct, installed all my apps, after I finished setting up my streak, tried to do a nandroid backup of 345, and it worked, I have done 3 backups and all worked. Hope the same thing will for otherd.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bayton:
I'd like to hear the answers from the question the op asked, can the update be run from android itself as I just did with the 318 update?

Are there any known bugs with 345 and does it run faster than 318 without the performance tweaks?

Also, any apparent changes in the battery life for 345? And can it be rooted with superoneclick as I did with 315 and will be doing with 318?

Thanks!
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marvin02:
I don't know, I didn't do it that way. I installed 345 using the 345 recovery from recovery mode.

I haven't found any bugs yet. Speed as determined by Quadrant scores is almost the same as stock 318, but it just seems to work smoother and have less glitches.

I am getting about the same battery life as stock 318. I easily get a full day on a charge.

Use this method to root 345.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bayton:
Thank you very much, that info is good enough for me!
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] .cruiser:
Yes. It can be. Copy the package to your SD card and rename it update.pkg to install.

[Thunderbolt General] RayKinStL:
Hi all,

I used to have a Nexus One and I've rooted every Android phone I've ever owned, mostly to remove the manufacturer crapware and get the stock Android experience. Sense isn't the worst thing ever, but I am wondering if anyone knows how to get and install AOSP alarm (clock program) and dialer. I think the HTC alarm program sucks, and while the dialer isn't terrible, it is displaying all contacts (including facebook ones) which I apparently can't change. I can make the contacts program show only my Google contacts, but apparently you can't customize that in the dialer.

Anyone got any clues or hints on where to go?

[Nook Color General] derekr:
I've searched the forums for an answer to this: how can I fix the fact that "location" doesn't work in Maps in Froyo 0.6.8? The only answer was to get an app called Fake Location, but that was a non-answer as far as I am concerned :-)
[Nook Color General] animatechnica:
assume you are aware nook doesn't have gps and that it approximates location using wifi
[Nook Color General] derekr:
Yes- and I've always been surprised how good it has been (before l moved to Froyo.)
[Nook Color General] Rhegaana:
Sorry to bump this thread but I just switch to this rom from CM7 due to the battery draining fast. Was there ever a fix found?

[Nook Color General] Link3737:
I hope I'm not just being an idiot here, but I am having a lot of trouble with adb shell right now.

When starting the shell, instead of starting in $ it defaults to #.

However, whenever I attempt to use 'su', I receive an access denied error. I am not receiving any prompt on the device as I normally would.

At first I thought this was just related to CM7, but even flashed back to rooted 1.0.1 I am getting this issue.

Can anyone offer some insight?

Thanks

I noticed at first that my market wouldn't auto update no matter how long I left it so I manually updated with a 2.3.2 apk I had laying around at which point it finally would auto-update to 2.3.4. Odd quirk I guess.
[Epic 4G General] djbacon06:
if it doesn't automatically update for you, go to settings --> applications --> manage applications --> all --> scroll down to market and click it --> clear cache and data, then re-open it (will take a second or 2) then there you go

I came across this video on youtube and this guys seems to be running a t-mobile tab using voice+3g (i think, not sure if that's what he means): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IZ4EDRLaILk

Of course he just shows off the tab running web and dialing while on H/3G, he does not explain how he got it done. I went ahead and sent him a message asking how he did it. My guess is that he is running google voice not sure, if anyone else is running google voice and is exactly as this guys is showing off please advise.

Did not want to get anybodies hopes up, just found it interesting. Lets see what he says if he replies.
[Galaxy Tab General] rangercaptain:
Thanks for the pointer. I remember that video from a while back, like November. I think he is using a voip application, not the dialer.apk, but I could be wrong.

I just got a report from a member in China who gets voice +3g data with one modem. He is using a tab he purchased in Chicago, and a China Unicom sim. Someone in Isreal said they do too, but I didn't get the sim provider.

Bottom line - it's possible, just not in the US with T-Mobile tab and sim.
[Galaxy Tab General] adinis78:
did not seem him launching any VOIP app he was online and just clicked on the phone tab thats on the browser and he just started dialing.

wonder what kind of modems they are using....
[Galaxy Tab General] gophet:
WTF
[Galaxy Tab General] raaleck:
Not seems to be a VOIP App... don't know!

But I just put a GUIDE of how to place and receive calls on your GT via VOIP using your Google Voice account. Also you could Forward the Call on settings to your SIP# so if you place your SIM on your tab and you could get Forwarded the Call to your SIP# and it will enter via VoIP!

It's a great solution until we get another solution!

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GMH24:
My carrier had some little problems during the past weeks, aparently they were working on something. I sometimes, for short periods, did not have data connection or no servic at all. Now the problems are gone and a speedtest today showed that at my home, the download speed went from an average 1 Mbit to over 5 Mbit! :D

However, the H symbol won't go away anymore! It used to switch to 3g when not data was transferred. I assume that this will influence battery life.

Is there anything I should be worried?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ukdtweak:
From what I recall, H is faster than 3g, as long as your in a good signal area, the H will always be visable, it will only drop down to 3g if the area your in has no H signal... and if there is no 3g it will drop to a 2g signal... simples, having the H does not meen that data is being transfered!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GMH24:
I am aware of the different speed levels, what I experience now is that the H symbol stays all the time, whereas it used to change to 3g when idling even in areas with very good reception...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrSimtang:
Wait, I don't get what you're saying. Let me clear it up:

Very good reception = H

Not so good reception = 3G

You want to see H (means HSDPA which is a a type of 3G data, but it's faster).
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GMH24:
Okay, I'll try that too! ;)

I live in an area with very good reception and therefore the phone used to switch from 3g to H whenever data was transfered and back . Now, however, it stays on H all the time and does not switch back to 3g when no traffic occurs.

It is just a change in the pattern my phone behaves so I wanted to get some info on that...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sleeco:
Hi, it's your phone doing what it should by seeking the best signal.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LeeBear:
H refers to HSDPA which is based on UMTS (3G). Consider it a 'turbo' version of 3G. It's sometimes also referred to as 3G+ because it's faster then 3G but not really 4G technology. The tower in your area most likely got upgraded to HSDPA that's why you don't see the 3G icon anymore.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] liraindon:
Not correct, he mentioned that his phone was using H on demand before, so the capability was there already.

The problem is that H mode uses more battery than 3G, which is why it normally only switches to H during data transfers instead of continously being on.

Possibly your provider made a change which forces your phone to stay in H mode. On hardcores homepage (see speedmod kernel thread) he describes a method to manually deactivate H mode if you want to play with it.

Hope that helps.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GMH24:
seems to be the explanation... Suddenly I have ~6 Mbit, so almost unsurprisingly there had to be a catch :(

as for disabling H, it would be permanently so not quite an option. I guess, I'll have to live with it but nevertheless I'll call customer support..
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MPKO:
Hspa and 3g are actually different technologies, but can be used on the same site and freq. If you have noticed that your phone is nowdays all the time showing H ( hspa ) and not in 3g like before it means that your carrier has expanded their hspa features and capacity of the network on that area. Main difference between these two tech is of course the speed and how network resources are shared between the users. In 3g you have dedicated ones, but speed limited and in hspa you are sharing the resources between other ones under that cell area. hspa is good if you are near by the cell and there is not too many users from battery consumption point of aswell from througput point of view, 3g is better if you are on the cell edge due to dedicated resources reserved only for you. Main point is, battery consumption of your phone depends mainly how you use your phone ,what kind of applications you have and how often those are connecting/contacted by the network.

Browsing in 3g sucks!

Hi guys, I recantly decided to update my gt540 from 2.1 to 2.3.3

I followed steps by steps on by this tutorial - http://fdapps.comuf.com/downloads/The LG GT540 Optimus reference page.pdf

Installed rom with fastboot, tried to install Clockwork with fastboot, I typed fastboot flash recovery C:\recovery.img , and then there's <waiting for device> , doesn't go further, I have everything installed sdk, usb drivers and usb debugging activated. Maybe there's some problem with key combination, to get in fastboot. From google I understood, that I have to turn phone off, then press and hold camera + press power button! I did other combinations too, but didnt work.

Just waiting for device..

Any ideas? I read, that if you're in fastboot there's just a black screen, and on pc desktop appears fastboot usb. I have non of that.

Thanks for help in advance.

Hello

1. you need to install a ROM with fastboot the most common is europe + fastboot (KDZ) ROM.

http://www.mediafire.com/?96nu9lb6afx22a7

2. once its finished phone will reboot, then fast login into fastboot mode CAMERA + POWER

3. You are missin 1 thing, OEM usb drivers not GOOGLE usb drivers as some tutorial says, those are just for Android Developer Phones (ADP), Nexus One, and Nexus S.

LG_Android_USB_Driver_Rebuilt

http://www.mediafire.com/?pbigrb8cimmxa4d

* these drivers are for your pc to recognize your phone in fastboot mode, they are not the normal LG usb drivers

4. for install the drivers abouve follow these smll tutorials

* if using windows 7:

http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html#Win7

* if using windows XP:

http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html#WinXp

once is installed plug your phone in fastboot mode to your pc, now your pc has to recognize your phone wait until it finish installing the drivers and read it properly

5. unzip the new ROM files into C:\*SDK\tools

6. open CMD Terminal and go to C:\*SDK\tools, type:

cd C:\*SDK\tools

7. once in, type

fastboot flash recovery recovery_clockwork_3.x.x.x_swift.img"

fastboot -w

fastboot erase system

fastboot erase boot

fastboot flash system system.img

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot reboot

*Just in case it drops you an error AdbWinApi.dll missing here is the file. place it in C:\*SDK\tools and try again

If gingerbread can run on my original mt3g, honeycreams can run on the Gtab. I can't foresee the android os doubling in size over night. Even if it did it would all be crap bloatware.

[G Tablet General] Pazzu510:
the ram in g tablet is extendable to over 1gb.

You have to open it and weld it yourself; the issue with this is that current roms(froyo and gingerbread) dont support the upgrade without the necessary modifications. If we get a honeycream rom with 1gb and 513kb variants, surely, whoever wants can make the ram upgrade in their local computing workshop or by themselves.:D

Cheer for the mods and lets wait a little longer for the honeycream AOSP and a port for g tablet.
